The fleet was mighty southward, and there was no obstacle along the way, and the news of the sea incident also spread quickly, Wang Xu knew the cause and effect in the Guangling sea area south of the Huai River before arriving at the mouth of the Yangtze River, which was really a sigh.

If it weren't for Yan Ming to save Luo Shen Zhen Mi, then he would not have risked returning to the mainland, and he would definitely have fallen into the death set by Hequan.

The layout is simple, but the power is not small, because everyone on that island is under control, only providing poisonous supplies, and Izumi is also surrounded by superior forces, twice as many people as in the battle at sea, and the reason why many people did not chase them out is entirely because there are not enough ships.

In that strange environment, even if you have some preparations, I am afraid that you will die and suffer heavy losses, not to mention that there are so many female dependents who need to be protected.

In the autumn of 198 AD, Wang Xu's fleet finally arrived at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and Jiangdong Sun Jian personally led the army and some important ministers to meet him.

At this moment, Wang Xu's heart finally really fell, since he went north to find medicine, he has experienced life and death wandering, and he really feels like a wanderer who has been away from home for many years.

Now he vaguely feels that he seems to have changed in this journey, dealing with the world's disputes, more calm and mature, and now he only needs to go through the last level that is not difficult, and he can really go home, return to his relatives again, return to his brothers, and lead the army to attack the city and calm the world.

Sun Jian camped on the seaside and set up a sumptuous dinner, and was even accompanied by Zhou Yu, Tai Shici, Zhou Tai, Gu Yong, Lu Su and other important ministers in Jiangdong. Say your best. The atmosphere was quite enthusiastic. It didn't disperse until late at night.

Refusing to be sent off, Wang Xu walked back to his tent alone, a little dizzy, although he had a good amount of wine, he couldn't withstand such a big scene.

After walking for a while, I was blown by the slightly fishy sea breeze, and my head was much clearer, and I was about to enter the account. But I caught a glimpse of the dark sea in the distance, and there was a majestic figure standing quietly, facing the sea, lonely and lonely.

"Zhang He?" Wang Xu frowned and couldn't help but walk over.

Zhang He is a master of martial arts, although his back is to this side, he can hear who the familiar footsteps are, turn around, and salute: "The general is back!" ”

"Don't be polite!" Wang Xu waved his hand and walked over with a grin. He sat down beside him. "Junyi, you can sit down too. Let's talk about it! ”

"Hmm!" Zhang He did not refuse, and then sat down on the beach, but there was still some silence.

"Huh!" Wang Xu smiled freely, looked at the moonlit sea, listened to the sound of the waves crashing on the sandy shore, and said comfortably: "What, are you still thinking about Yuan Xi?" ”

"How does the general know?" Zhang Heqi said.

Wang Xu rolled his eyes: "In the past half a month, you have been silent and preoccupied, what is going on, how can it be unclear!" Tell me, what are you worried about? We are sitting here today talking about brothers, and there is no respect and inferiority. ”

"Hey!" Zhang He sighed leisurely, his face full of bitterness: "General, the last general really doesn't know what to do now, this is going back to Hebei, what will Yuan Xi do to me?" And my family's life is in danger! ”

After hearing this, Wang Xu shook his head disapplausively: "If you are worried about Yuan Xi, then you don't have to, he doesn't have that ability, and he doesn't have that right, at least not now, so I don't dare to do anything to you, it's too late to hide from you." ”

"Is that true?" Zhang He's eyes lit up instantly.

"What a lie to you!" Wang Xu glanced at him, but before he could be happy, his voice had already changed sharply: "However, Yuan Gongke may not be able to tell." ”

"My lord?" Zhang He was stunned, and then said in disbelief: "The general means that the Lord Guild harmed me?" ”

"It's not harmful, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to take on heavy responsibilities in the future, and you will never be able to use it." Wang Xu's expression gradually became solemn, he is not talking nonsense now, he is completely telling the truth. "But when Duke Yuan is old and his sons take power, I'm afraid they can't help it."

"Why?" Zhang He looked very puzzled, and said excitedly: "Why don't you use me, the end of this trip will be completely conscientious, and there will be no half-point difference!" ”

"Don't worry, listen to me." Wang Xu looked at Zhang He calmly: "You have been assisting Ben Chu for so long, you should also understand his character, Ben Chu brother is not only good-looking, but also suspicious, if Yuan Xi didn't do this this time, it would be a great achievement for you to go back, but the bad thing is that Yuan Xi did it." ”

"Think about it, with the first brother's doting on his sons, although he will be furious after knowing the cause and effect, he will never be punished too severely, and at this time, he is ashamed of you, will he still want to see you? As long as you are there, isn't it always reminding him that there is no distinction between public and private, and that he is short-sighted? How does this make it how to command the army, how to govern the government, how to have majesty? With his original nature, can he tolerate it? ”

"Secondly, I was very suspicious at the beginning, you were so wronged, but he didn't give you justice, aren't you worried that you have a grudge in your heart? Besides, I am afraid that you do have a grudge in your heart. ”

"I ......," Zhang He wanted to defend.

Wang Xu waved his hand to interrupt and continued: "Jun Yi, you and I are both mortals, it is impossible to be completely dissatisfied, at least for Yuan Xi, you are absolutely dissatisfied, and it is impossible to support him in the future, so things have happened, and many things cannot be changed." It's just that I believe that you won't abolish the public because of personal gain, but Brother Benchu won't believe it, so he doesn't dare to use you anymore. Do you think I'm right? ”

Zhang He was silent, he can become a famous general in Hebei, and he will be famous in history, of course, he is not a stupid person, and after a long time, he finally sighed and accepted the facts.

"Actually, that's not the most terrible reason." Wang Xu suddenly spoke again.

"What else, the general will say it together!" Zhang He's face was full of bitterness, in fact, he already knew what it was in his heart.

Wang Xu knew that he was uncomfortable, but he had to say it at this moment, because he was making a decision for Zhang He. "I'm afraid you also think that the most important reason is that after you go back, this matter will inevitably boil, Brother Ben Chu is worried that it will affect other Hebei ministers to be suspicious and shake the situation in Hebei, after all, other people will also worry that the next time you encounter this situation will not be yourself."

No matter how unwilling he was to accept it, Zhang He had no way out, and sighed sadly: "I think that I Zhang He is loyal and has never had two hearts, but now I have no place for a stupid child, how unfair the sky is!" How unfair! ”

The tranquil sea listened to him, but unfortunately the sound of feedback was always the same, it was the sound of the waves crashing, maybe it expressed something, or maybe it didn't express anything!

After a long, long time, Wang Xu broke the silence leisurely and said in an affirmative tone: "Junyi, come to Jingzhou!" ”

"It's not easy to say, my family is in Hebei, and my lord may not agree to let him go." Zhang He was depressed, he also thought that when he found that Hebei could never go back, he thought about taking refuge in the person next to him, and in this general who once fought with his blood, but there were too many obstacles.

Wang Xu smiled and waved his hand indifferently: "As long as you are willing, you will agree to it at the beginning, but you have to suffer some grievances!" ”

"What grievance?" Zhang He asked.

"The only way is to write a letter to inform me of the reason for the original incident, and then take the initiative to say that you are not suitable to go back, and let him order you to go to Jingzhou to help me conquer Cao Cao in the name of cooperation. Wang Xu said calmly.

This time, Zhang He was silent for even longer.

It wasn't until Wang Xu was a little anxious that he smashed his fist on the beach. "Good! But what about the brothers who were with them? If that happens, there will be no one in Hebei who can prove it, they have experienced it themselves, and they will suffer misfortune when they go back. ”

"Of course, let's go to Jingzhou together!" Wang Xu said with certainty: "You have to inform them of the stakes, let each of them attach a letter, inform their close relatives to follow your family south, leave this matter to Fan Tong to do, or pick it up from the sea, they should not be in danger." ”

When the words fell, the two looked at each other, calm and firm!

After a while, a smile bloomed on Zhang He's face, and he suddenly got up and knelt on the ground: "Zhang He greets the lord!" ”

"Good brother!" Wang Xu also jumped up excitedly and held Zhang He's strong arm: "In the future, we will fight side by side to stabilize the world!" ”

"The last will be the force of death!" Zhang He let go of his heart, only felt relaxed, and even faintly felt that from the heart, he wanted to follow Wang Xu.

On this full moon night, on the quiet seaside, the famous general Zhang He left Yuan Shao by coincidence and went to Wang Xu, and since then he has started a more magnificent life. The scene of kneeling on the sea under the moonlight and confessing the Lord may not be seen by more people, but it is frozen, leaving an indelible mark in the vast torrent of history, and casting a heroic poem.
